There aren't enough Dyson Trees in Science Fiction.
I can't believe Dan Simmon's Hyperion was the first time I heard of this concept.
It's a tree that's a space ship. A space ship that is a tree. It's the most delicious idea! Where is it?
It's called Dyson after Feeman J. Dyson, a mathematician and physicist, who also thought up the Dyson Sphere. A concept I'm sure many are familiar with. (There's also the O'Neill Cylinder, that colony thing at the end of Interstellar)
A Dyson Tree is a construct where a plant grows inside a comet or asteroid or something and produces it's own atmosphere. With a human crew it could easily be envisioned as a system where humans produce CO2 and the plant produces oxygen. Slap on some thrusters and you have a space ship. Some artificial gravity and you have a tree instead of a bush.
Tree houses! In space!
And it's not just some fancy scifi nonsense, oh no! An actual nerd thought of this!

I went back and colored a pic i had in storage for a while. I think I showed the black and white version but I wanted to post it again. Mostly because I have a sorta followup comic to it now.
Really looking forward to doing more space art in the future.

The Fleeting Touch of Darkness
The crackle of the cablewhip snaps and pops in the air.
Okle blindly reaches out for the fallen slave, Ospree.
Hands press blindly into the thin clothes- a pair of fingers walking up Ospree’s spine, then a gentle fist pressed right to the spine’s base. Two palms tap the shoulder blades and then Ospree is staggering to her feet, Okle supporting her under vir shoulder.
A brief grasp of each other’s forearms and both move back to mining the ionite in the walls.
The Signs seen+meanings.
“a pair of fingers walking up Ospree’s spine”- means to stand up, rise, move onwards.
“a gentle fist pressed right to the spine’s base”- remember your strength, be strong, gather your power, prepare to endure
“Two palms tap the shoulder blades” - you can persevere, I have your back, we will escape this, we move forwards together
“A brief grasp of each other’s forearms” - thank you, your message is received/understood, we stand together
The Characters Seen:
- Unnamed Minnco: originally from a planet of a similar climate to Endor, this bird-like being is small, smart, and in the case of this individual, cruel. They knowingly chose to be an overseer.
- Okle(pronounced ock-ul) a mirialan who was sold to offworld mining by vir parents. Okle was gifted the name of a small cavebird who is used to find the way to the surface after a cave in. The Minncoa call vem “Shard” after the shards of ionite mined. Okle has been on bandomeer for 8 years. Okle is 22 years old.
-Ospree is a zabrak/togruta hybrid kidnapped from a space port. Ospree is around 17 years old. Ospree was gifted the freime of a hunting predator who prowls the shadows of caves seeking out beings who are cruel. Ospree are tuned to the emotional side of the force. Ospree’s cagime is Pickk, for the tool used to mine the cave walls.

Think we're the only planet with life? 350mp quality. Remember to download to your phone and zoom in. Gets even more beautiful. Yes this is a nebula, yes I know there’s no life in a nebula. Of course these are not real photos. Duh!

I feel like nobody on Tumblr knows that the international space station is being discontinued.
Did you know that? In less than a decade it will be gone

Space (I see you)
Danny has a space core, in the beginning he thought he has an ice core, but it turns out that because he had been highly stressed since his death his core had been underdeveloped and only showed certain aspects to keep him healthy.
Years have passed his 14 birthday (death-day)
He was now 17 and had grown into his core which had revealed a lot about him.
For example, being the Ancient of space distorted his entire view of everything. After all space was everywhere and ever growing, expanding more and more.
Danny could feel himself in his physical halfa body,
But at the same time he was watching people on the other side of the planet: laughing, dancing, celebrating, crying, being born, dying,mourning, and going about their day.
That was only on this Earth he could see every Earth that exists.
Earth was such a small part of space.
He could feel & see entire solar systems, galaxies, nebulae.
More & more
Just continuing to expand
Never ending
As he got older he could understand more his connection to everything.
Being able to help life be born on other planets
Moving moons towards planets
Creating star nurseries
Everything at his grasp
~
This would cause him to let his mind wander away from his physical form, which just looked like he was spaced out.
His human form slipping slightly when he does: freckles gaining a glow and moving to form different constellations, his hair moving like if it were weightless, and his eyes
Don't stare too long at his eyes
After all the eyes are the window to the soul
And his hold too much
(Look away)
~
Danny casually watches a meteor shower hundreds of light years away, spaced out: Ooh pretty!
The poor goon who taught he could mug a careless teen and stared at his eyes for too long: *Twitching on the ground foaming at the mouth*
~
Danny who hasn't blinked in a few minutes: "The pretty space station with heroes in it just made a full orbit on top of us again!"
Tim next to him who's just waiting in line for a cup of coffee or 3: *panicked side eyes him* Wh-What?
~
Batman: "We have to find who's taking out all these criminal."
Danny who looks like a Wayne kid therefore getting regularly kidnapped (or at least attempted), focusing on making a good star nursery: " Shhh! I'm concentrating"
Villain & his goons dropping like flies: "Mercy!"
~
Just an Idea
